*Life Update* :)
« on: October 19, 2009, 09:10:00 PM »
Automotive Tech school is going great. Got a job an an ATV rental shop to help put my Automotive Tech classes to somewhat of a use. Me and my also just bought a great project car for while we are school. Its a 1972 Volkswagen Beetle. (No Pics Yet) Basically a brand new 1915cc V-dub motor (Flat 4 Air Cooled). With racing cam and crank and forged like everything...Single Carb though. (Going to make it a dual carb with a bigger intake) Stock suspension and drum brakes (cant stop lol) Beefed up trans axle(transmission) and a Stage Two Racing Clutch. Currently does wheelies and Low 13's (13.1's to 3's depending on how crappy me and my brother drive lol.)  :D I figure with a dual carb, bigger intake, and a better suspension setup and a cement bag in the front it should get into the 12's pretty easily.  :banana: Oh and maybe disc brakes may be needed lol

So thats a quick life update. Hopefully after a few more months I'll have time to get back in the skies and tryout the WW1 Stuff. See yall later.  :rock
